Mr Wilson liked to brag about his new electric car
Only costs £5 a charge he says but never says how far
He only drives it round the block
And occasionally to the shops

We did our wills some years ago.  We've been talking about setting up POAs with our children, but not done it yet.

I am engaged in a much nastier , I won't say discussion because it's one sided on a.n.other place ( not PF ) 
It's a place where bigotry is rife and pensioners are treated like senile numpties.

Lots of people simply can't afford to pay lawyers for expensive ones.

To the callow youths (as the tossers looking after the Amazon bot almost certainly are) anybody over 30 would be regarded as geriatric.

It's still hammering away but sending an immediate 403 (forbidden) requires far less resource than running a php script to create a forum page from the database. I've set it to allow the robots.txt file regardless now so if they read that and obey the directive to sod off then even the load generating 403s will be removed too.
